wANTED--A JUDGE.
Maginnis, Corn or Blair Avail
able for the Mccoy Trial.

The Began, alias Mccoy case, will
probably be tried before Judge Maginnis,
Notwithstanding the affidavit of the de-
PENDANT that he honestly believed hat he
j~eopardized his rights in allowing the legal
Judge of this judicial district to preside
during the trial of the case.
After the objection of the murderer of
Chas. Gum had been filed with the clerk
of court by his attorneys, Judge Maginnis
suggested that Judge Blair hear the case.
For some reason the prosecution objected
to the wearer of the ermine in the second
judicial district, and the objection being
sustained, it was then sought to secure
the services of Judge Corn, who was then
holding court at Lander, Fremont county.
Great difficulty was experienced in com
municating with the gentleman, and it
was not until yesterday morning that it
was definitely known hat he refused to
act. When United States Attorney
Campbell left for Evanston, Judge Corn's
home, it was expected that he would re-
turn in company with the judge. who,
however, failed to appear, but sent a YER
bal message to Judge Maginnis per Mr..
Campbell, stating in substance that he
had been engaged in his official duties at
Evanston and Lander, and was physically
unable to appear here at an early date,
but would willingly change seats with
Judge Maginnis next September. United
States Attorney Campbell had also inter
viewed Judge Blair, who had stated that
after being objected to by the prosecution
he would positively refuse to o~ficiate.
Judges Blair and Corn have been tele-
graphed and communicated with by mail
in order that their official refusals may be
received and placed on file with the other
papers in the case.
Prosecuting Attorney Stoll wished to
proceed with the case yesterday with
Judge Maginnis on the bench, asserting
that all of the witnesses were now here
and probably many of them could not be
secured two months hence.
Judge Maginnis stated that it would
be necessary for the prosecution to file a
motion to vacate the order of the court
for a change of venue before he could act
in the matter.
Unless favorable int diligence is received
from either Judge Corn or Judge Blair
before 9 o'clock this morning, Attorney
Stoll will file the motion as suggested by
Judge Maginnis and it will be argued at
once.

Two OF the most desperate characters
who ever inflicted themselves upon a re-
spectacle community were Ed. Germs and
Frank Ketchum, who were among the
early settlers of Lusk. Germs was a pol
ished and expert criminal who is suspect
ed of forgery in connection with the real
estate business in Wyoming and Nebraska
and who threatened to kill several of his
neighbors during his residence in Lara
mic county. Ketchum is of the class
who would steal upon an enemy at night
and follow the Italian method of avenging
real or imagined wrongs. Both were
convicted of perjury during the present
term of court for false swearing during
the Trumble trial. Judge Maginnis
yesterday sentenced Germs to eight and
ketchum to four years confinement in
the Laramie county penitentiary. In
passing sentence upon Germs Judge
Maginnis stated it as his belief that the
p%erjurer was also guilty of being an Access
sorry in the murder of Miley and should
have been punished for the crime.

A Noted PugilIst In Town.

Jack Burke, the Irish Lad, a bright
star in the pugilistic armament, was a
passenger on the westbound train last
evening. He was accompanied by his
trainer, jimmy Carroll, of Chicago, and
Mrs. Burke and daughter. Burke
spared two nights in Denver with local
talent, and drew crowded houses there
this week. He is bound TOR San Fran
cisco, where it is expected that he and
Paddy Ryan will spar ten rounds for
points July 25, winner to take 60 per cent
of gate receipts, after which event the
Irish Lad will sail for Australia and meet
the champions of that country. Burke
weighs 10 pounds, and remarked to
Harry Hynds last evening that he never
felt better, and was confident that he
could defeat Ryan in much less than ten
rounds. The pugilist is a fine specimen
of physical manhood, and attracted a
great deal of attention at the depot.

Thay've returned.

The Board of Pardons which met the first
of this week pardoned Thomas Mcdowell,
who was sent to prison ten yeors ago from
this county for life. The crime for which
Mcdowell was sent up was murder. In
March 1877 he shot and killed young man
named Edward Nall. on the Davis ranch be-
lo~ For, Churchill. After the killing he
travelled int Mason Valley, and three days
after the shooting was captured by H. J.
CARING and Brought to Dayton. At the time
r. A. Cooke was Sheriff of this county.
The cause Of the shooting was jealousy on
the part of Mcdowell. Nall and Mcdowell
were both trying to keep company with the
same lady, and several outsiders made Nc.
believe that Nall would shoot him il he was
sga,n found in the lady's company. This
excited Mcdowell and he obtained a pistol
and shot Nall through The neck. There are
many who think Mcdowell ought to serve
out his sentence, while there are others who
believe he has been punished enough.

LicOrice Root.

Two years ago reporter of the TINES.
while doing the county fair at Wabuska,
was shown fine LOT of licorice root that was
grown in the door yard of John &. Young,
of Mason Valley. Atthe time. it was sag
gested that the raising of this root in the
Valley might become a profitable industry
40 it seemed to grow we'll and rapidly with
but very little irrigation. Last week, in
glancing over our exchanges, there appeared
an item in one OF the California papers,
stating that resident of California, living
somewhere near Sacramento, had shipped a
number of tons Of this root either to San
francisco or Sacramento. and sold it at a
pr ce which Melted him handsome profit.
AS it has been demonstrated that licorice
root will grow here, why would 1t not be a
good idea to plant more of it, If it can be
sold for price tina. will pay to raise it in
California it surely could be made 10 pay
here, as it costs nothing to look after it and
it will grow most anywhere in the Valley.

Death or Professor Brauer.

The Carson papers of last Saturday an.
nounced the death Of Prof. Brauer, who for
the past few months has made regular week,
ly visits TO Dayton for the purpose of in
structing quite number Of pupils in piano
lessons. The disease that carried the Prof
off is supposed to have been pneumonia, but
it seems that very little is known about it,
as the people of Carson treated him as a
pauper and for some unacceuntable reason
buried the body about eight hours after
death, giving friends no chance to view the
remains or attend the funeral. Mr. Brauer,
stated to his pupils here two weeks ago that
he was going to take vacation and they
would probably not see him for several weeks.
That he was not pauper is shown by the
Carson Index which states that he has sever.
al influential friends in the State. II all ac-
counts of the manner IN which he was treated
are true it is very shameful case. We wish
to say that in our dealings with the Professor
that he was found TO be an honest, upright
man, who paid his way wherever he went.
More than this he was a gentleman Of the
FIRST water and had fine education, and in
his death his pupils have lost as fine an in
structor in music as there was in the State.
May he rest in peace.

AGAIN HEARD FROM.
The Campers Finally Reach Lake
Tahoe.

ED. TIMEs:-
The intense satisfaction expressed
by an anxious public on reading the letter
from the Hope Valley, Lake Tahoe and
Clear Creek excursion party published in
your last issue, constrains me to lay before
you another letter from the dear friend who
is endeavoring to get back.
"HANKs STATION, LAKE TAHOE,
July 18th, 1887
DEAR FRIEND:-We are here at last. The
steel wire, which was received just in time,
did the work. neglected to tell you be-
fore the main cause Of our delay in reaching
Hope Valley. 1t was due to Jay Eye See
and Goldsmith Maid. The construction OF
lay Eye See is so peculiar that while he is
anxious and willing to go up hill, he obsti-
nately refuses to 60 down. The formation
Of Goldsmith Maid. however is just the re.
verse. Nothing short of shovel-handle or
a steel wire will pursuade her to 60 up bill.
but it takes three strong men to hold her
going down. Thus it has been since
leaving Dayton, and the only wonder is that
we got here at all.
Herman killed deer yesterday-that is,
he said he dld-but between you and l the
meat tasted a good deal like beef. He
/ tells me that venison always smells and
tastes like beef, especially at this season OF
the year, and after it has been dead some
time. So far as l am concerned l have but
little sense of smell left. A skunk fell into
the water bucket two days ago and have
been breathing the rankest kind Of air ever
since. In fishing it cut Walter discovered
that it was loaded and primed. After the
clouds rolled by and Walter had been
wrapped up nicely in blanket it was dis
covered that Hanks old cat had eaten near
| y all the fish. The disastrous effects Of this
| are bound to tell on my constitution. |
| caught one consumptive trout yesterday but
did not get a chance to eat it.; Herman did
that.
! Tell our friends we are coming home. We
| don't know when we will get there, but we
are coming. We have decided that the Pc
culiar dispositions of Jay Eye See and Gold
smit Maid will delay our arrival until late
hour in the night, at which time we trust
everyone will be safely in bed.
Your friend,
| ALBERT"
You will perceive, Mr.. Editor, from a
careful perusal of the above letter, that the
boys are having a smashing old time. And
while their expenses for whips and steel
wire have probably been considerable their
joy on getting home once more will Offset
all these. Yours,
MoMENTUs McCLosKY.
